CLASH

An 'epic, stunning, ferociously well-made' (says the Guardian) thriller from Egypt set entirely inside a police detention van in the midst of violent clashes between demonstrators and police. In the wake of President Morsi's ouster by the Egyptian military in 2013, the streets are filled with protestors - and the security services launch a brutal crackdown. A group of protestors and bystanders from different sides find themselves arrested and bundled into a paddy wagon, which quickly becomes a pressure cooker with tensions mounting within the van and outside in the street in an epic finale which 'channels De Mille with its sweep and control' (Variety).
